A westbound First Great Western HST with powercar 43163 on the rear passes Paddington-bound Heathrow Express Class 332 EMU 332008 and Royal Oak London Underground station at the start of its express journey.<br>
43163 was also bringing up the rear on the 10:32 Swansea to London Paddington service on 19 September 1997 that collided with an EWS freight train at Southall, a few miles west of here, writing off the lead powercar 43173.
